Congratulations to everyone who completed the previous challenge. I have not been able to continue posting daily so I admire your perseverance. Who can resist a round starting January 1st? Anyway, I want to lose as much as possible in this round.
Congratulations on reaching your New Low, that's awesome.
Wishing you continued success.

Day 5 clean eating complete.
I think I'm over the detox period. Today was easy peasy, no cravings and didn't look twice at unhealthy food around me.
Glad to see my weight adjusted after yesterday's chaos.
Day 44-02/13-- 184.7
Day 6 clean eating with many challenges along the way as I was out of the house with many temptations 😀
Weigh in was 4 hours early so I'm not concerned with higher number.
I need to prepare for granddaughter 10yr coming out this weekend 🥺
Day 45-02/14-- 184.0
Day 7 clean eating. 😀 I'm not craving junk, but am getting bored with the same foods already. Time to find some new recipes.....
Day 46-02/15-- 184.0
Day 8 clean eating 😀 Chia seed pudding with kefir pm snack last night not a good idea. Very bloated today.
Had Mexican today for our belated Valentine's lunch, ordered healthy but no way to avoid the sodium. Let's see what happens tomorrow????
Day 47-02/16-- 184.7
Day 9 clean eating 😀 well looks like the sodium took a little toll. Avoided many fast food obstacles today, wanted to stop at everyone, and don't forget the delicious smelling fish Fry's 😜
Day 48-02/17-- 185.1
Day 10 clean eating 😀
Trying not to let the scale get me down. Having bathroom issues since eating chia seeds. I'm sure it will all work itself out. My clothes are fitting better and I feel stronger, so I will keep moving forward.
Day 49-02/18--
Week 7 Goal: 183
Week 7 actual weight2 -
65 years old. 5' 8". Started back in March 2023 at 85.5 kg, down from my all time highest of 100 kg (220 lb) Since participating in the last two 100 Day Challenges I'm down to 70 kg (154 lb). My aim this time is to drop another 5 kg and reach my ultimate goal weight of 65 kg (143 lb) - and keep it off for the next two years at least - hopefully forever!
Day 01-01/01-- 70 kg. Waist 30.5 ". Hips 40 "
Day 02-01/02-- 70.2 kg. This is like investing for retirement in the stock market. The advisor told me 30 years ago "Think long term. Don't chase high returns for quick gains - aim for slow and steady returns. Don't worry about daily fluctuations - as long as you stick with it the overall trend will be upward." Happy now I took his advice.
Found a jar of Kalamata olives in the pantry. Delicious! but I'm trying to limit myself to 4 daily. And yes! - I already got rid of the cheese and crackers I'd normally have with them.
Day 03-01/03-- 69.9 kg.
Day 04-01/04-- 69.6 kg. who would've thunk there could be marshmallows in the pantry and I am only eating two per day?! Sloooowly breaking the impulse to Eat All The Goodies Quick while they're around because Lord knows when there'll be any more - food insecurity issues from childhood.
Day 05-01/05-- 69.5 kg. Yay! Hit my 1st week goal already - just have to maintain for another two days rather than going off the rails and over celebrating with treats to reward myself for losing the weight.....
Day 06-01/06-- 69.8 kg. I started knitting a lace scarf last month. It is very fine yarn on tiny needles, and I can only work on it in daylight. For the last 4 weeks I have been knitting 8 rows a day, and now my scarf is 22 inches long! I was feeling very proud of my progress and thinking it was a good lesson in perseverance with the weight loss plan as well. Well! so today I went to pick it up and somehow - pulled out the needle! Oh, ye knitters of the world, weep with me.....
Day 07-01/07-- 69 kg!!! Ummm.... this maybe TMI, but has anyone ever weighed themselves, then needed to go, then felt a strong desire to weigh themselves again - to see how much they dumped? ....not to boast - but, 0.5 kg? like, over a pound? Wow.
Week 1 Goal: 69.5 kg.
Week 1 actual weight: 69 kg.
Day 08-01/08--69.8 kg.... ???
Day 09-01/09-- 69.2 kg. Grandma used to say "What you gain on the swings you lose on the roundabouts." I'm guessing this was originally an allusion to the old style carnival where you paid to go on the rides, but maybe the barker was also running some kind of "chance to get your money back" gambling dodge as well? Anyway, it seems appropiate to eating for weight loss - cut out a slice of bread here and lose some, drink a can of soft drink "just this once" and gain it back.
Day 10-01/10-- DNW
Day 11-01/11-- 68.9 kg. I'm always hearing "eat protein for breakfast" and "breakfast like a king", but I just can't do that. A big plate of bacon and eggs always leaves me feeling uncomfortably full, weighed down and heavy. I just don't want to go for my usual morning walk, whereas a bowl of oatmeal, or a couple slices of wholewheat toast, with a piece of fruit, fills me until lunchtime, while still feeling light and active. I'm thinking there are many cultures where no, or just a light breakfast is the norm - it's really only the last 200 years in the Western world that 3 meals a day has become the norm. Even in the 60s, when I was a kid, snacking was not the usual thing - there weren't all the granola bars and cheesy chippy things we have today. I'm wondering how much of being told what we "should" eat, is actually real science based, and how much is funded by food manufacturers who want us to buy their products - how many orders for pizza delivery have been placed after seeing an ad? and deciding then "I'm too tired to cook".
Day 12-01/12-- 68.8 kg.
Day 13-01/13-- 69.2 kg. We are having a heat wave and it's exhausting to walk outside. Also I'm on medication which makes my skin more photo sensitive, so no to being lots in the sun. Fortunately, my appetite has decreased with the heat and I don't feel like cooking, so lots of raw fruit and veggies are on the menu.
Day 14-01/14-- 69 kg. Some cookies and chips came ..... into my possession. "Them that asks no question, isn't told a lie. Watch the wall, my darling, while the chocolate cake goes by." So I just ate the treats (about 800 calories) and nothing else.
Week 2 Goal: 69 kg.
Week 2 actual weight: 69 kg. So no net loss or gain this week, but still on target.
Day 15-01/15-- 68.8 kg. I want to knit a sweater for myself and I'm in a dither over what size to make. I know I'm 2 dress sizes smaller than I was, but I need my actual measurements. And then I need to work out how big the completed sweater will be and how much ease I want - I don't want "sweater girl" negative ease, but I don't want baggy oversize either, since I still have a little more weight to lose.
Day 16-01/16 69.8 kg. I found a big jar of mayo at the back of the fridge......I would have taken it to the food pantry, but it was already open....spent the evening gorging on mayo and cucumber sandwiches. No, I regret nothing.--
Day 17-01/17-- 70 kg .....Well, the rest of the mayo is gone - I hate to waste food, but, yes, it went down the sink - and the fiber in all the wholewheat bread has worked, so here's to a drop on the scale tomorrow.
Day 18-01/18-- 69 kg. Hopefully back on track.
Day 19-01/19-- 70 kg. Is it the scale or is it me not being super careful over tracking? I am perflummoxedcombobulated! Maybe my body is telling me it's happy at current weight and doesn't want to go lower?
Day 20-01/20-- 70 kg.
Day 21-01/21-- 69 kg. Weather has been super hot and I think I may have eaten something that's gone a bit off - been feeling unwell for the last 24 hours.
Week 3 Goal: 68.5 kg.
Week 3 actual weight: 69 kg. As Scarlett O'Hara said, "Tomorrow is another day."
Day 22-01/22-- 68.5 kg.
Day 23-01/23-- 68.7 kg.
Day 24-01/24-- 68.4 kg. I was given a fruit cake today - a whole 500 grams (over a pound). I try very hard not to buy sweets and baked goods or keep them in the house, but free food is fair game..... I ate it all in 2 hours ..... I'm thinking with Lent approaching I need to give it up completely - at least for long enough for my taste to change.
Day 25-01/25-- 68 kg.
Day 26-01/26-- 67.9 kg.
Day 27-01/27-- DNW
Day 28-01/28-- 68 kg. Made it!
Week 4 Goal: 68.5 kg.
Week 4 actual weight: 68 kg. 4 weeks, 2 kg down.
Day 29-01/29-- 69 kg. Note to self - do not celebrate weight loss with toasted cheese.
Day 30-01/30-- 70 kg. Another note to self - just because fruit mince tarts are reduced price after Christmas, doesn't mean there are less calories. You're not "saving" money, either - you're spending it!
Day 31-01/31-- 69.8 kg.
Day 32-02/01-- 69 kg. Easy come, easy go.
Day 33-02/02-- 68.8 kg.
Day 34-02/03-- 69.8 kg. What witchcraft hath possessed my scale? Oh right - I'm the one polishing off the goodies before Lent.
Day 35-02/04-- 69 kg.
Week 5 Goal: 68 kg.
Week 5 actual weight: 69 kg. Only 1 kg lost in 5 weeks? Need to keep my eye on the ball.
Day 36-02/05-- 68.8 kg. 64 days to lose 3.8 kg - around 60 grams per day.
Day 37-02/06-- 68.5 kg. I am the only person who controls what goes into my mouth.
Day 38-02/07-- 68.1 kg. Stay focused. Stay strong.
Day 39-02/08-- 68.7 kg. I luuurve avocadoes and they are said to be very good for you, but oh my Lord, the calories!
Day 40-02/09-- 70 kg. Yikes!
Day 41-02/10-- 69 kg.
Day 42-02/11-- 70 kg. Even footling around with cheat meals. Lent starts on Wed, and I am absolutely resolute on giving up sugar. (Yes, I know the primary aim is not to lose weight, but the self discipline will hopefully have a positive side effect.)
Week 6 Goal: 68 kg.
Week 6 actual weight: 70 kg. Epic fail. 6 weeks gone - and I'm back to starting weight.
Day 43-02/12-- 69 kg.
Day 44-02/13-- DNW. Pancakes galore! With bananas and chocolate sauce! Will repent tomorrow.
Day 45-02/14-- 69 kg. Today is both Ash Wednesday and St Valentine's Day.
Roses are red, violets are blue:
Lent is beginning - no chocolate for you.
Day 46-02/15-- 68 kg
Day 47-02/16-- 67.9 kg. Per MFP this day deficit, I will weigh 65.4 in 5 weeks. Hope and pray!
Day 48-02/17-- 68.1 kg. So close!
Day 49-02/18-- 67.9 kg. Darn chocolate buttons,
Week 7 Goal: 68 kg.
Week 7 actual weight: 67.9. Try to find myself some non-food reward for coming in under goal.

Day 43-02/12--78.8kg Away for a few days by the sea. I've relaxed a little, food wise, but my walking has upped from my normal off work days. I won't be weighing in until Friday, it's shrive Tuesday here tomorrow and I may partake in a couple of light ones for brunch. 7/30 . Jumping jacks are not getting easier but I've upped the resistance bands to 15kg.
Day 44-02/13--8/30 stayed with the higher resistance band. Bought myself a Christmas goal dress it's supposed to be my size but it's actually smaller by maybe 1-2 dress sizes, it's stunning though and wasn't expensive as I bought it Preloved. Met step count but did eat chocolate and crisps. Also had pancakes but I'm. Not eating any "junk" at Kent, I shall miss my cuppuchino. Just plain old fashioned instant coffee.
Day 45-02/14-- well, no eating junk didn't work, I forgot..oops! However almost 15k steps, I treated myself to some new workout things, socks, skipping rope and a yoga top. Son has been showing me "Russian twists" to help with my abs without having to do sit ups which hurt my neck and spine. (Growths causing inflammation) 9/30 excercise challenge, I really hate Star jumps!
Day 46-02/15--Back from break, weigh in tomorrow a tad nervous. #0k steps done but had to use step for 40 minutes, so a different work out, 11/30 challenge, I miscalculated so I'm one ahead wooh! 20 Russian twists and 40 donkey kicks. I forgot just how amazing you feel once the endorphins hit, one minute I could cope, the next I feel like I could run a marathon (Well not really, but you get the picture).
Day 47-02/16--77.9kg Not doing so well on the no junk for lent, I'm still under my calorie goal and mfp says in five weeks I'll weigh xyz, doesn't seem to be the case, but I'll keep plugging away at it. Got a feeling that I've starting my menopausal monthlys (or whenever it likes to turn up) I feel well, sore and bloated.
10k done, 40 donkey kicks, 30 Russian twists, 12/30 challenge. Think the star jumps I'm lasting a little longer on before needing a quick stop. Have a nice sleep/day allx
Day 48-02/17--78.4kg pffft?! Not feeling it today. Went out with family, picked a side salad and wrap at McDonald's for under 500 cals. That's twice this month I've had McDonald's. Way more than normal.

@Fooshki
The vitamin D.
I realize that you work so much.
20 minutes of being outside in any kind of weather provides 20,000 units of Vitamin D. You would have to take 20 pills which might or might not get absorbed by the body like direct to skin nature.
When you take your food break at work could you possibly go outside to eat? 10 minutes here and 10 minutes there?4 -
Hi
I am Dawn
5'2" (used to be 5'3"), 63 years old
Brand new year! Of course going to try to take off some greasy pounds.
Week 1 Goal: 143.2 (beginning of last 100)
Week 1 actual weight: 145.6 - Start weight of the week 145.6
Week 2 Goal: Didn't put one this week
Week 2 actual weight: 145.0 - started the week at 145.8
Week 3 Goal: 143.4
Week 3 actual weight: 144.8
Week 4 Goal: 143.8
Week 4 actual weight: 144.6 - Used Saturday's weight
Week 5 Goal: 143.8 - Just putting this number in until I hit it
Week 5 actual weight: 144.8 - started the week at 145.6
Week 6 Goal: 143.8 - Just putting this number in until I hit it
Week 6 actual weight: 144.4 - Started the week at 144.0
Day 43-02/12 - 144.4 - I made sure that the Superbowl was on in both of my pods at my second job yesterday (LTC). What a game! I was finished my shift, but KC tied it up so I stayed until OT and then whipped home to watch that. Starting the week at a higher weight than what I started last week, but still hopeful and trying. Long way to go yet to get back to my 2022 weight.
Day 44-02/13 - 144.2
Day 45-02/14 - 144.6 - Up from yesterday, but weighed earlier than usual. Everything was on point.
Day 46-02/15 - 144.6 - Really fun night working at the restaurant on a split shift. I skated during my afternoon break for a bit. I honestly do not have a sweet tooth, but ate many Valentine's chocolates that we were giving out. I am off at 2pm today, and my plan is to go x-country skiing for a bit with a young guy from Nigeria who wants to try it. New friend that I work with at my second job. He and his wife have a very cute 2 year old that I have met. He wants to embrace what we do for activities here in Canada.
Day 47-02/16 - 144.0 - Super busy at work yesterday and went straight to x-country skiing, so didn't get a chance to eat at all until the evening. This morning I put together linguine and meatballs for the next 2 days, and enough salad for tonight. I can throw another salad together for tomorrow night. Day 1 of 5 of 2 jobs per day, then just one job next Wednesday and Thursday so that I can go skating on Wednesday : - )
Day 48-02/17 - 144.6 - No choice but to eat dinner late. Feeling like I am on a treadmill. 2 1/2 months more and I will be stopping all of this working myself to exhaustion.
Day 49-02/18 - 144.6 - Feeling stuck. Lots of activity this week, good calorie counts. I will possibly get 2 days off completely next weekend, trying to give away shifts...
Week 7 Goal: 143.8 - Just putting this number in until I hit it
Week 7 actual weight: 144.6 - Started the week at 144.4

Thoughts:
While other challenges may show bigger losses (or gains), it really depends on what date you are looking at with me because I do go up & down quite a lot, especially with my frequent required day trips. However, from Jan 1st through Dec 31st, I lost 16.0 pounds in the full year of 2023. That is what I have lost and KEPT OFF. While I am very proud of that, I know that the road ahead is long and will be a difficult one since I still have so far to go and so many health related obstacles in my way. Each 100 day round I am extremely grateful for any progress I can make, no matter how big or small. I am also grateful for all the support from all of you that I get on a daily basis. Working on my health has become my #1 priority. My main goals are to maintain my remission by staying cancer free and to keep my diabetes in control. Losing weight is key to both goals.

Day 48-02/17-179.6-(Trend weight 180.6) Yesterday I planned a day with moderate calories and carbs. I did really well until the Sugarfest All-Out Binge last night. I didn’t even want to post today but accountability is the whole point, right? So today I will be doing one of the lowest calorie & carb days to reverse things. It’s Very Obvious….Completely clear….I have no more control over sugar than I did when I began this journey in 2018. I long for the day when I can have a “Sliver” of cake or “Just One” piece of chocolate from a box of chocolates. Will that day ever come? I just don’t see it happening. I need to be extra good today and hope that the Scale Gods smile down on me in the morning if I want to show a loss for Week 7. Stand back, I’m going for it!
Day 49-02/18-179.2-(Trend weight 180.5) Pile it on, whittle it off. Gosh, I thought the scale would go down a bit more considering how hungry I was yesterday and how well I coped/starved. I came within an inch of another binge, this time it was hungry and cravings all rolled up into one. Then I looked at my watch and was shocked to see it was already after 2:00 a.m. So I said to myself, “Donna, you won’t even be awake long enough to gloat in it or bask in its sunshine”, so I didn’t do it. I must admit, had it been 9:00 pm I think I would have caved. There is more than one kind of strength training. The one with my handweights is much easier than this! I’m already starting my day off still hungry. In fact, when I went to copy today’s post to add to my saved format, I thought my computer said Pasta. It said Paste.
WEEK 7 LOSS OR GAIN: 0 lbs Lost or Gained but my trend weight has really come down so there’s hope for some improvement soon.
Accumulated Loss or Gain: 4.6 lbs Lost

Congratulations to everyone who completed the previous challenge. I have not been able to continue posting daily so I admire your perseverance. Who can resist a round starting January 1st? Anyway, I want to lose as much as possible in this round.
About me: male, 59, chronic yo-yo dieter. 43 percent on the way to lose 32 kg.
I'm going with a starting weight of 81.5 kg which is what I weighed on December 31.
Day 01 83.1 kg I'm tracking my intake and going for an average of 6,000 kilojoules. I'll post how much over that in total I am. I had a morning 45 minute walk, and it was raining in the evening so no walk then. My food was 6249 kilojoules so I'm over by 249, I want to get rid of that in the next few days.
Day 02 82.7 kg, two 45 minute walks and intake is 5839 KJ food which means I have overeaten in total by 88 kilojoules.
Day 03 82.4 kg, two 45 minute walks, 20 minute shopping walk, I ate 6584 kilojoules so I'm over by 672.
Day 04 81.8 kg, two 45 minute walks, I ate 5306 kilojoules of food so I under ate in total by 22.
Day 05 81.9 kg, two 45 minute walks and 40 minute shopping walk, I ate 6472 kilojoules so I'm overeating by 450 kilojoules
Day 06 81.4 kg New Low, lowest weight in 5 years 1 month, I delayed tracking my intake until late in the day, 7276 kilojoules eaten so I'm 1726 kilojoules over what I should be, that's going to take a long time to get back to zero, no biggie though, two 45 minute walks.
Day 07 81.5 kg, two 45 minute walks and 40 minute shopping walk, I ate 6148 kilojoules so I'm overeating by 1874 kilojoules
Day 08 81.2 kg New Low, I had a sugar fest to celebrate writing in my daily planner before midday 8 days in a row. 13,269 Kilojoules eaten which is huge and would typically take months to recover from however my girlfriend and I will soon be doing the diet prescribed in Effect of an Intermittent Calorie-restricted Diet on Type 2 Diabetes Remission: A Randomized Controlled Trial which will include a bit of under eating so I'm not bothered by that. Total overeating 9143 kilojoules which is equal to 260 grams of fat. I did a 45 minute walk and 40 minutes shopping walking.
Day 09 81.8 kg I did two 45 minute walks and a 20 minute shopping walk. I ate 8461 kilojoules which is high again. 11,604 kilojoules overeaten. Had a packet of salty food which will cause problems tomorrow. I've got 10 days to lose to a new low weight because I want another week added in my 'Lose weight every week challenge'. So it's time to eat less.
Day 10 82.2 kg one 45 minute walk and a 20 minute shopping walk. My overeating is 11499 kilojoules which is too much.
Day 11 81.6 kg
... took a break from posting, which is kind of normal for me
Day 48 80.7 kg New Low, I had a good day, 35 and 55 minute walks, eating just under suggested amount. So the bad news is that I am one day off (based on tomorrow's weight) from achieving another week in the Lose Weight Every Week challenge. So I didn't lose weight this week. I did achieve 16 losses in a row, which is pretty good though. No one else did the challenge recently so I won't continue with it anymore.
Day 49 80.0 kg New Low, two 45 minute walks and 40 minute shopping walk. I ate a medium sized pizza which meant my eating was way over today. My last pizza until goal weight (unless the scenario of anyone specifically wanting to have pizza with me, in which case they'll have to pay for my pizza I ate today, unlikely).
Day 50 80.4 kg5 -

65 years old. 5' 8". Started back in March 2023 at 85.5 kg, down from my all time highest of 100 kg (220 lb) Since participating in the last two 100 Day Challenges I'm down to 70 kg (154 lb). My aim this time is to drop another 5 kg and reach my ultimate goal weight of 65 kg (143 lb) - and keep it off for the next two years at least - hopefully forever!
Day 01-01/01-- 70 kg. Waist 30.5 ". Hips 40 "
Day 02-01/02-- 70.2 kg. This is like investing for retirement in the stock market. The advisor told me 30 years ago "Think long term. Don't chase high returns for quick gains - aim for slow and steady returns. Don't worry about daily fluctuations - as long as you stick with it the overall trend will be upward." Happy now I took his advice.
Found a jar of Kalamata olives in the pantry. Delicious! but I'm trying to limit myself to 4 daily. And yes! - I already got rid of the cheese and crackers I'd normally have with them.
Day 03-01/03-- 69.9 kg.
Day 04-01/04-- 69.6 kg. who would've thunk there could be marshmallows in the pantry and I am only eating two per day?! Sloooowly breaking the impulse to Eat All The Goodies Quick while they're around because Lord knows when there'll be any more - food insecurity issues from childhood.
Day 05-01/05-- 69.5 kg. Yay! Hit my 1st week goal already - just have to maintain for another two days rather than going off the rails and over celebrating with treats to reward myself for losing the weight.....
Day 06-01/06-- 69.8 kg. I started knitting a lace scarf last month. It is very fine yarn on tiny needles, and I can only work on it in daylight. For the last 4 weeks I have been knitting 8 rows a day, and now my scarf is 22 inches long! I was feeling very proud of my progress and thinking it was a good lesson in perseverance with the weight loss plan as well. Well! so today I went to pick it up and somehow - pulled out the needle! Oh, ye knitters of the world, weep with me.....
Day 07-01/07-- 69 kg!!! Ummm.... this maybe TMI, but has anyone ever weighed themselves, then needed to go, then felt a strong desire to weigh themselves again - to see how much they dumped? ....not to boast - but, 0.5 kg? like, over a pound? Wow.
Week 1 Goal: 69.5 kg.
Week 1 actual weight: 69 kg.
Day 08-01/08--69.8 kg.... ???
Day 09-01/09-- 69.2 kg. Grandma used to say "What you gain on the swings you lose on the roundabouts." I'm guessing this was originally an allusion to the old style carnival where you paid to go on the rides, but maybe the barker was also running some kind of "chance to get your money back" gambling dodge as well? Anyway, it seems appropiate to eating for weight loss - cut out a slice of bread here and lose some, drink a can of soft drink "just this once" and gain it back.
Day 10-01/10-- DNW
Day 11-01/11-- 68.9 kg. I'm always hearing "eat protein for breakfast" and "breakfast like a king", but I just can't do that. A big plate of bacon and eggs always leaves me feeling uncomfortably full, weighed down and heavy. I just don't want to go for my usual morning walk, whereas a bowl of oatmeal, or a couple slices of wholewheat toast, with a piece of fruit, fills me until lunchtime, while still feeling light and active. I'm thinking there are many cultures where no, or just a light breakfast is the norm - it's really only the last 200 years in the Western world that 3 meals a day has become the norm. Even in the 60s, when I was a kid, snacking was not the usual thing - there weren't all the granola bars and cheesy chippy things we have today. I'm wondering how much of being told what we "should" eat, is actually real science based, and how much is funded by food manufacturers who want us to buy their products - how many orders for pizza delivery have been placed after seeing an ad? and deciding then "I'm too tired to cook".
Day 12-01/12-- 68.8 kg.
Day 13-01/13-- 69.2 kg. We are having a heat wave and it's exhausting to walk outside. Also I'm on medication which makes my skin more photo sensitive, so no to being lots in the sun. Fortunately, my appetite has decreased with the heat and I don't feel like cooking, so lots of raw fruit and veggies are on the menu.
Day 14-01/14-- 69 kg. Some cookies and chips came ..... into my possession. "Them that asks no question, isn't told a lie. Watch the wall, my darling, while the chocolate cake goes by." So I just ate the treats (about 800 calories) and nothing else.
Week 2 Goal: 69 kg.
Week 2 actual weight: 69 kg. So no net loss or gain this week, but still on target.
Day 15-01/15-- 68.8 kg. I want to knit a sweater for myself and I'm in a dither over what size to make. I know I'm 2 dress sizes smaller than I was, but I need my actual measurements. And then I need to work out how big the completed sweater will be and how much ease I want - I don't want "sweater girl" negative ease, but I don't want baggy oversize either, since I still have a little more weight to lose.
Day 16-01/16 69.8 kg. I found a big jar of mayo at the back of the fridge......I would have taken it to the food pantry, but it was already open....spent the evening gorging on mayo and cucumber sandwiches. No, I regret nothing.--
Day 17-01/17-- 70 kg .....Well, the rest of the mayo is gone - I hate to waste food, but, yes, it went down the sink - and the fiber in all the wholewheat bread has worked, so here's to a drop on the scale tomorrow.
Day 18-01/18-- 69 kg. Hopefully back on track.
Day 19-01/19-- 70 kg. Is it the scale or is it me not being super careful over tracking? I am perflummoxedcombobulated! Maybe my body is telling me it's happy at current weight and doesn't want to go lower?
Day 20-01/20-- 70 kg.
Day 21-01/21-- 69 kg. Weather has been super hot and I think I may have eaten something that's gone a bit off - been feeling unwell for the last 24 hours.
Week 3 Goal: 68.5 kg.
Week 3 actual weight: 69 kg. As Scarlett O'Hara said, "Tomorrow is another day."
Day 22-01/22-- 68.5 kg.
Day 23-01/23-- 68.7 kg.
Day 24-01/24-- 68.4 kg. I was given a fruit cake today - a whole 500 grams (over a pound). I try very hard not to buy sweets and baked goods or keep them in the house, but free food is fair game..... I ate it all in 2 hours ..... I'm thinking with Lent approaching I need to give it up completely - at least for long enough for my taste to change.
Day 25-01/25-- 68 kg.
Day 26-01/26-- 67.9 kg.
Day 27-01/27-- DNW
Day 28-01/28-- 68 kg. Made it!
Week 4 Goal: 68.5 kg.
Week 4 actual weight: 68 kg. 4 weeks, 2 kg down.
Day 29-01/29-- 69 kg. Note to self - do not celebrate weight loss with toasted cheese.
Day 30-01/30-- 70 kg. Another note to self - just because fruit mince tarts are reduced price after Christmas, doesn't mean there are less calories. You're not "saving" money, either - you're spending it!
Day 31-01/31-- 69.8 kg.
Day 32-02/01-- 69 kg. Easy come, easy go.
Day 33-02/02-- 68.8 kg.
Day 34-02/03-- 69.8 kg. What witchcraft hath possessed my scale? Oh right - I'm the one polishing off the goodies before Lent.
Day 35-02/04-- 69 kg.
Week 5 Goal: 68 kg.
Week 5 actual weight: 69 kg. Only 1 kg lost in 5 weeks? Need to keep my eye on the ball.
Day 36-02/05-- 68.8 kg. 64 days to lose 3.8 kg - around 60 grams per day.
Day 37-02/06-- 68.5 kg. I am the only person who controls what goes into my mouth.
Day 38-02/07-- 68.1 kg. Stay focused. Stay strong.
Day 39-02/08-- 68.7 kg. I luuurve avocadoes and they are said to be very good for you, but oh my Lord, the calories!
Day 40-02/09-- 70 kg. Yikes!
Day 41-02/10-- 69 kg.
Day 42-02/11-- 70 kg. Even footling around with cheat meals. Lent starts on Wed, and I am absolutely resolute on giving up sugar. (Yes, I know the primary aim is not to lose weight, but the self discipline will hopefully have a positive side effect.)
Week 6 Goal: 68 kg.
Week 6 actual weight: 70 kg. Epic fail. 6 weeks gone - and I'm back to starting weight.
Day 43-02/12-- 69 kg.
Day 44-02/13-- DNW. Pancakes galore! With bananas and chocolate sauce! Will repent tomorrow.
Day 45-02/14-- 69 kg. Today is both Ash Wednesday and St Valentine's Day.
Roses are red, violets are blue:
Lent is beginning - no chocolate for you.
Day 46-02/15-- 68 kg
Day 47-02/16-- 67.9 kg. Per MFP this day deficit, I will weigh 65.4 in 5 weeks. Hope and pray!
Day 48-02/17-- 68.1 kg. So close!
Day 49-02/18-- 67.9 kg. Darn chocolate buttons,
Week 7 Goal: 68 kg.
Week 7 actual weight: 67.9. Try to find myself some non-food reward for coming in under goal.
Day 50-02/19-- 67.5 kg. Halfway thru the Challenge and Halfway to Goal!
Halfway Progress Report: …..Pounds Lost so Far: 2.5 kg (5.5 lb) or 50 grams per day.

The vitamin D.
I realize that you work so much.
20 minutes of being outside in any kind of weather provides 20,000 units of Vitamin D. You would have to take 20 pills which might or might not get absorbed by the body like direct to skin nature.
When you take your food break at work could you possibly go outside to eat? 10 minutes here and 10 minutes there?
I can go outside when I take my lunch at work, but it’s usually like 2 or 3 AM so there’s no sun 😂
But I should definitely start doing it in the morning after work though. I usually go straight home to shower and sleep, but after work is really probably the ideal time. Thanks for the suggestion!

Cheat day today. I ate way too much salt at a brunch after work with friends, but I think it will be okay. I was pretty sick last week and at the beginning of this one, so my body probably needs the extra salt anyway.
It looks like we’re at the halfway point, which is cool. I’ve never lasted this long in a challenge before so I’m excited to see how the second half goes. ☺️

Thoughts:
While other challenges may show bigger losses (or gains), it really depends on what date you are looking at with me because I do go up & down quite a lot, especially with my frequent required day trips. However, from Jan 1st through Dec 31st, I lost 16.0 pounds in the full year of 2023. That is what I have lost and KEPT OFF. While I am very proud of that, I know that the road ahead is long and will be a difficult one since I still have so far to go and so many health related obstacles in my way. Each 100 day round I am extremely grateful for any progress I can make, no matter how big or small. I am also grateful for all the support from all of you that I get on a daily basis. Working on my health has become my #1 priority. My main goals are to maintain my remission by staying cancer free and to keep my diabetes in control. Losing weight is key to both goals.

Day 49-02/18-179.2-(Trend weight 180.5) Pile it on, whittle it off. Gosh, I thought the scale would go down a bit more considering how hungry I was yesterday and how well I coped/starved. I came within an inch of another binge, this time it was hungry and cravings all rolled up into one. Then I looked at my watch and was shocked to see it was already after 2:00 a.m. So I said to myself, “Donna, you won’t even be awake long enough to gloat in it or bask in its sunshine”, so I didn’t do it. I must admit, had it been 9:00 pm I think I would have caved. There is more than one kind of strength training. The one with my handweights is much easier than this! I’m already starting my day off still hungry. In fact, when I went to copy today’s post to add to my saved format, I thought my computer said Pasta. It said Paste.
WEEK 7 LOSS OR GAIN: 0 lbs Lost or Gained but my trend weight has really come down so there’s hope for some improvement soon.

Weight in blue makes me blue because it’s a gain. Weight in fuchsia pink makes me feel cheery because it’s a loss. Weight in black means no change.
Day 50-02/19-179.4-(Trend weight 180.5) No real structured exercise yesterday although I worked my butt off cleaning out an upstairs closet. I’m also going through all the clothing on hangers that came out of my bedroom closet that is being renovated. I’m not through them all yet……I travel tomorrow to get more blood work done at the hospital. Hopefully they can lower my thyroid medicine again. All signs of me getting healthier after some of the weight loss I’ve been experiencing over the past year. Now…..if only I could get my diabetes medicine lowered. …..

Well it seems like I have officially now recovered from my vacation weight loss set back. Now to move onward. I suppose I can be happy that I am 9 pounds down at the halfway mark and not cry about how far I could have been! Just the fact that I didn’t let it completely derail me this time is an accomplishment in itself. Hope everyone has a great week!Day 01-01/01—248Week 1 Goal: 246

Day 100-04/09…..(Final Weigh- In)-I am 59 years old this month (ouch). I currently live in Texas with my hubby and crew of kitty babies. I am a neonatal nurse practitioner and work 24hour shifts in a busy NICU. If it looks like I disappear on random days…that’s why! About 10 years ago I lost 135 pounds. Never made it to goal but just sort of leveled off at ~200 pounds. Over time I gained back nearly 50. Working on getting back at least to my low weight of 200. I would like to eventually make it to 150 where I think I would be comfortable.3 -

Day 50-02/19 - 143.4 - Wow, somehow dropped a pound!! That has made my day! I have been working at this for so many years, and have almost felt like giving up because it seems like I just don't lose any weight no matter how "good" I am. This loss will motivate me to keep on keeping on : - )

Day 50-02/19---78.3kg...so fed up of being in the 78kg area for 4 weeks now. Think I might swap my fasting period for a week to see how that goes, ie skip dinner, have breakfast and lunch. We don't eat until 7pm because that's when husband gets home, so we all eat together.
Caught up on all excercise as was in a low mood the past few days. 60 donkeys, 60 Russians and up to date on resistance training 15/30. 3cm on middle of tummy.
